[nagdu] Doggie Paws

[Juanita Herrera]

William, I don't use a backpack. I carry all my stuff in my purse, and
I'm not a big fan of placing my purse on the ground.
Robert, Thank you. I would do that if our desk chairs didn't have
anything under them. However, under the chairs they decided to put a
weird looking basket thing so it is hard to fit my dog.
Has anyone figured out a method to convince their pups to tuck in
their paws? Her body fits perfectly fine under my desk. The only thing
that sticks out are her paws.
